It's one of the places pure libertarianism fails me, I feel like morally reprehensible things should not be condoned. At the same time, I probably overemphasize the personal responsibility part, and I feel like part of this overlaps. I think we should be able to expect a few basic things from everyone. Brush your teeth. Pay your bills. Clean up after yourself. Don't rape people.
wow, you are the first to bring up "personal responsibility" in the age of Trump
I love it when people talk about the "morality"
as if ....

I used to vote for mostly Democrats. I take responsibility for helping elect Bill Clinton.
I've been clear on here before about what I think the greatest moral deficiency in this country is, and it's the reason I can't in good conscience vote for any Democrats now. Reasonable people can and should disagree on those things, but I assure you that morality is the deciding factor of my vote.
Don't think for a minute I was happy about Trump being the Republican nominee, or that I don't dislike many things about him. He wouldn't be allowed in my house if he knocked on my door tonight. But I am mostly in agreement with him from a policy standpoint.
What is and isn't morally reprehensible is a matter of perspective. The constitutional way to look at it is wether prostitution deprives anyone of their rights. If it's not violating anyone's rights then you can not like it all you want but have no right to incarcerate consenting adults. It's not the act you find reprehensible it's just the bias you were indoctrinated with from birth that women having multiple sex partners is immoral. That literally goes against science. The penis head is shaped liked the way it is because it is supposed to scrape out the seen of other males.

I agree that the federal government is not given the right to prohibit prostitution. I even agree with you in a theoretical sense that it probably should be legal from an individual freedom perspective. And you are correct that I find women (or men) having multiple sex partners immoral. We moved past needing to scrape out seed (yuck) a long time ago, although we are certainly morally backsliding at a troublesome pace on that issue. Common morals are a bedrock of a stable society, which is why we see our own nation in it's current turmoil, and such a failure of integration going on in Europe right now.
What do you think about this? I have a dream that someday all men shall have the right to get their rocks off no matter their outward appearance or disability. If I can be serious for a minute, I think a lot of violence is done by sexually frustrated men and if we started thinking if it more as a neccesary bodily function we might make a dent in mental health crisis that is developing in this country. What's wrong with a straight A student who can't get laid getting his winky whacked at a rub and tug.
